TBDApp State’s First Bowl Game!TBD
- All rehearsals (Band Camp and during the semester) are required.
- Move-in times are 9:00am – 1:00pm on the report date. Rehearsals begin at 3:00pm that day.
- All performances in BOLD are required.
- Note that there are 6 home games (4 on Saturdays and 2 on Thursdays)
- There is a possible away trip to the Clemson game. Please keep that date open.
- We are still in negotiations about a return to a Carolina Panthers game!
- The Open House on 9/26 is a morning performance in the Holmes Center. We will be finished by 10:00am. This is required.
- The Applause performance on 10/13 is on a Tuesday morning. You will be excused from classes.
- Note that the game on 11/28 is the Saturday after Thanksgiving…this is required.
- There is a high probability that App State will qualify for a Bowl Game. The band will travel to this game and it will be required, even though it will happen during the Holiday Break. There is no way at this point to predict when or where this will be, but it would likely be one of these Bowl Games:
New Orleans Bowl(December 19 in New Orleans, LA)
Camellia Bowl(December 19 in Montgomery, AL)
The Cure Bowl(December 19 in Orlando, FL)
GoDaddy Bowl(December 23 in Mobile, AL)
